Bibliography
Andrew Hurrell is Director of the Centre for International Studies at Oxford University and a Fellow of Nuffield College, Oxford. He has written extensively on international institutions and governance at both the global and regional levels and on the role of major developing countries in contemporary international relations.
This is one of the finest books on the normative dimension of
global governance published in the past decade. Utilizing insights
from the English School, liberal institutionalism, and
constructivism, the author addresses some of the most profound
questions on the nature, limitations, and possibilities of global
order in the twenty-first century...On Global Order should serve as
a resource for a wide range of readers, including scholars and
students of international relations and international law,
international civil servants, diplomats, and journalists.
*Samuel M. Makinda, Ethics and International Affairs*
On Global Order consciously and successfully sets out to e the
twenty-first-century version of The Anarchical Society...a major
statement and required reading for anyone interested in the theory
and practice of international relations.
*Chris Brown Political Studies Review*
This book has been eagerly anticipated and it does not disappoint.
Its principal concern is with the challenges of global order:
capturing shared interests, managing unequal power, and mediating
value conflict This is a subtle and challenging book at every
level, and its prime characteristic is its consistent eschewal of
facile options, either analytical or prescriptive.
*Perspectives on Politics*
Hurrell avows himself explicitly to the tradition of neo-Grotianism
established in particular by Hedley Bull and, more generally, by
the English School of International Relations. He delivers,
however, an essential contribution to the overcoming of a
conceptual shortcoming which affected Bull's theory of the
'international society' ... [and] Hurrell consistently improves and
substantiates the conceptual instruments traditionally used by the
English School of International Relations.
